Description

On the turn of the sixteenth century, the notion of world was once dramatically being reshaped, leaving no aspect of human enjoy untouched. The Nomadic Object: The Challenge of World for Early Up to date Religious Art examines how sacred art and artefacts responded to the demands of a world stage within the age of reform. Essays by leading scholars explore how religious objects because of cross-cultural contact defied national and confessional categories and were re-contextualised in a global framework by means of their collection, exchange, production, management, and circulation. In dialogue with current discourses, papers address issues of idolatry, translation, materiality, value, and the agency of networks. The Nomadic Object demonstrates the importance of spiritual systems, from in another country logistics to philosophical underpinnings, for a global art history. Contributors are: A. Akiyama, J. Clifton, J.L. Collins, R. Dekoninck, D. Eichberger, B. Fricke, C. Gottler, C. Hille, M. Kern, D. Khera, Y. Kobayashi-Sato, U. Krass, E. Levy, M.h Martin, W.S. Melion, M.M. Mochizuki, J. Favrot Peterson, R.M. San Juan, D.-M. Teece, T. Weddigen, and I.G. Zupanov.
